The judge also barred Trump from running a business in New York for three years. The ruling, after a yearslong civil fraud case that tested Trump’s exaggerated claims of wealth, could wipe out his entire stockpile of cash. The former president will almost certainly appeal the financial penalty — which could climb to $400 million or more once interest is added — but will have to either come up with the money or secure a bond within 30 days. With no jury, the power to deliver punishment was in the hands of Justice Arthur Engoron, [and he came down hard](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnsmczP0TiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMi8xNi9ueXJlZ2lvbi9hcnRodXItZW5nb3Jvbi10cnVtcC1qdWRnZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMjE2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExNTQwNSZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU4NDM1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgplzjPiz2VXpybiUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~). The decision threatens Trump’s business empire as he simultaneously contends with four criminal prosecutions and seeks to retake the White House. Engoron also barred Trump’s two adult sons from running a New York business for two years and imposed a $4 million penalty on each of them. Trump will most likely ask an appeals court to halt the restrictions on him and his sons while it considers the case. The trial was a product of a 2022 lawsuit filed by New York’s attorney general, Letitia James, against Trump. The $355 million penalty reflects the profits lost by lenders who James argued would have earned far more if not for the fraud.

He was last seen yesterday, when he appeared in a court hearing via video link, smiling behind the bars of a cell and making jokes. The news shocked world leaders and led to skepticism among Western officials about the circumstances around his death. Navalny’s team, some of whom will arrive tomorrow at the prison, said they could not immediately confirm his death but believed he was likely dead. President Biden said that there was “no doubt” that Putin’s government was behind the death. “What has happened to Navalny is even more proof of Putin’s brutality,” Biden said. “No one should be fooled.” If confirmed, Navalny’s death would leave Russia without its most prominent opposition voice [at a time when Putin has amassed near-total power](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnsmczP4QFAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjQvMDIvMTYvd29ybGQvZXVyb3BlL3doZXJlLWRvZXMtbmF2YWxueXMtcmVwb3J0ZWQtZGVhdGgtbGVhdmUtcnVzc2lhLWFuZC1wdXRpbi5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjQwMjE2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTExNTQwNSZubD10aGUtZXZlbmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTU4NDM1JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgplzjPiz2VXpybiUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAM~). ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnsmczP0TsaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMi8xNi91cy9rYW5zYXMtY2l0eS1zdXBlci1ib3dsLWNlbGVicmF0aW9uLWNoYXJnZXMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9uZV8yMDI0MDIxNiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTU0MDUmbmw9dGhlLWV2ZW5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE1ODQzNSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZc4z4s9lV6cm4lIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD People gathered at a vigil for the victims of the parade shooting in Kansas City, Mo., yesterday. Chase Castor for The New York Times Two teens were charged in connection to Kansas City shooting Two teenagers were charged with [resisting arrest and gun-related offenses](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnsmczP0TsaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMi8xNi91cy9rYW5zYXMtY2l0eS1zdXBlci1ib3dsLWNlbGVicmF0aW9uLWNoYXJnZXMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9uZV8yMDI0MDIxNiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTU0MDUmbmw9dGhlLWV2ZW5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE1ODQzNSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZc4z4s9lV6cm4lIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) in connection to a shooting this week that left one person dead and nearly two dozen injured during a Super Bowl victory celebration in Kansas City, Mo.
